Synopsis

Winner of the Palme D'Or at Cannes and setting the standard for world cinema in 1960, Italian maestro Federico Fellini (La Strada, 8 1/2) dramatically opened the eyes of cinema goers and critics alike with this searing critique of a celebrity-obsessed, hedonistic world as seen through the eyes of a fluff-peddling journalist.
Marcello Rubini (Marcello Mastroianni) is a gossip columnist and would-be novelist who chronicles "the sweet life'' of fading aristocrats, second-rate movie stars and aging playboys in high society Rome in the 50s. Armed with his "paparazzi", the philandering Marcello ultimately succumbs to loneliness&nbspand tragedy as he flees his obsessive, suicidal fiancee while vainly vying for the affections of a vivacious screen goddess (Anita Ekberg). Showcasing the sexy and truly audacious romp in the famed Trevi Fountain in glistening high definition black and white, as well as including a treasure trove of&nbspspecial features, La Dolce Vita remains a milestone of European cinema.
